Teresa’s take on the market for negotiations

Well, now here we are in early 2014. The climate now is much more balanced in the real estate market. Here in Breckenridge the Sellers and Buyers are on a more balanced playing field.We offer a wide variety of statistics, spreadsheets and data but we are still dealing with people in this business. The way to negotiate the best deal for yourself in buying a property isn’t always about the numbers. So my clients are asking me what the feel is for Buyers and Sellers. Before the 2007-08 recession the Sellers were boss. They could claim whatever price they wanted pretty much and the properties would fly off the shelf. During the recession Buyers were worth everything. They were king and the Sellers were happy to get an offer. Any offer. So let’s hope the balance continues! Happy New Year.
